I have autorandr in my i3 config file so that it sets the correct display on log in exec_always autorandr. The top is how I want my set up to be and the bottom is how it is when I log into i3.

This is the output when I log in and the orientations are incorrect. When I first made the profile I did it in arandr and then autorandr -s lapdp1dp2 in the correct order.

In essence autorandr keeps the orientation of lightdm (which is the below orientations) and doesn't adjust when I log into i3.

Are you certain that autorandr is to blame here? E.g., did you try to force-reload the configuration manually, both right after saving it, after making changes within the same session, and within a session where you think autorandr failed?
